HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE MAHENDAR KUMAR GOYAL Judgment / Order
11/09/2023
This contempt petition has been filed alleging willful
disobedience of the order dated 23.08.2017 passed by this Court
whereby, the respondents were expected not to violate the order
dated 16.09.2013 passed by the Court of Assistant Collector and
Magistrate as also to make demarcation of the land.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the
respondents are raising construction of flats on the land under his
Khatedari and possession without its demarcation. Referring to the
site report dated 23.01.2012 (Annexure-R/7) appended with the
rejoinder, learned counsel submits that therein, it was agreed
between the parties that the demarcation should be done by the
Surveyor of the Land Settlement Department; but, without giving
[2023:RJ-JP:21877] (2 of 2) [CCP-236/2023]
him a proper opportunity, the demarcation has been done
allegedly on 10.04.2023 without assistance of the Land Settlement
Department. He, therefore, prays that the respondents may be
directed to purge the contempt and they may also be punished
suitably.
Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents, inviting
attention of this Court towards the contents of the reply filed by
them as also the various documents appended therewith including
the exchange deed, would submit that as requested and desired
by the petitioner himself, the land under his Khatedari has been
exchanged with the land belonging to the UIT, Kota. He submits
that as per demarcation report dated 10.04.0223, no construction
is found on the land of Khasra No.576/60, under Khatedari and
possession of the petitioner. He, therefore, prays for dismissal of
the contempt petition.
Heard. Considered.
From a perusal of the exchange deeds placed on record
alongwith the reply filed by the respondents and the demarcation
report dated 10.04.2023, this Court is not satisfied that the
petitioner has been able to establish beyond reasonable doubt that
the respondents are raising construction on the land under his
Khatedari and possession violating the order dated 23.08.2017
passed by this Court.
In view thereof, no contempt is made out. The contempt
petition is dismissed accordingly.
The notices are discharged.
